Save the dates: Ash Wednesday, Holy Week Services

Lent is a time of penitance and introspection starting on Ash Wednesday and going through Easter. The First Christian Church, the First Presbyterian Church, and the First United Methodist Church of Pauls Valley traditionally share hosting community worship services for Ash Wednesday, Maundy Thursday, and Good Friday. Save the dates for these meaningful worship services around lent. All services start at 6:00pm.

• Ash Wednesday: Wednesday, March 5, 2025. Ash Wednesday starts Lent with a traditional imposition of Ashes (marking worshippers' faces or hands wit a cross drawn in ash). This year, the First United Methodist Church is hosting our community Ash Wednesday service with the theme, "Anticipation of being a good Christian."
• Maundy Thursday: Thursday, April 17, 2025. Maundy Thursday is the night Jesus ate his last supper with his disciples. "Maundy" comes from the word Mandate, when Jesus gave us the mandate to "Love one another as I have loved you." This year, the First Presbyterian Church will host a meditative communion service with music from the Taize Community in France.
• Good Friday: Friday, April 18, 2025. Good Friday is the day Christians remember Jesus' crucifixion and death. "Good" comes from a time when the word also meant "Holy." This year, the First Christian Church hosts this solemn worship service.

Mark these dates on your calendar and frame your Lenten season with these meaningful worship services in our community.
